A light-hearted thread for piss-takers wink

Five hour round trip to orthodontist today. I needed a coffee. I didn't buy it from Starbucks (don't like their coffee anyway).

Can I have some P(olitical)C(orrectness) points, please?

What else earns PeeCee points nowadays?

I didn't buy a coffee at Starbucks (they haven't ventured to the wilds of the Peak District yet and I don't drink coffee anyway), I didn't buy anything at all from Amazon, DH and I used only one car and we don't have any sort of swimming pool, although DH used the one where were staying so it didn't go to waste. I don't eat yogurt, so have no pot to wash, BUT the grandchildren have yogurt in those tube things - have you ever tried to wash one of those and not get soaked?

How many is that please and how do I cash them in - are they like Nectar points? I have nearly enough of those to pay for the Christmas booze!! grin

I leave the hair out of my hairbrush floating around in the garden. For the little birdies in their nests. smile

Allright, greatnan, if you're getting competitive: do you compost your nail clippings, and the hair and dust out of your hairbrush, and the contents of your vacuum cleaner?

Does anyone except me?

300 points, please!

I don't think they burp it, Nanad...hmm

jO5 Fri 23-Nov-12 16:57:29

Oh, I see!

Mints make me burp. smile

Nanadog Fri 23-Nov-12 16:53:21

I thought the mints might stop them burping up all that methane....

I have no washing machine or dish washer and I use my bath water to wash my clothes. I don't use my bedroom to save heating it and I don't need to put my living room radiator on because I watch TV/surf sitting under my duvet with a hot water bottle. My entire fuel bill (electricity only) for last year was about £400. Beat that! And I live at the same altitude as Snowdon. ( This is not frugality - I don't like hot rooms.)
I waste no food since I discovered I can cut a large baguette into pieces and freeze them.
I wear clothes until they fall to pieces.
I buy wine in a box so there is no bottle to recycle.
I claim the PC prize!

whenim64 Fri 23-Nov-12 16:26:57

Butty if I could prise a point off someone you could have half of it - not having much success so far! grin

whenim64 Fri 23-Nov-12 16:24:14

Ana er........might be? grin Actually, the bird bath is overflowing a bit grin

Butty Fri 23-Nov-12 16:17:52

I'm in negative equity with PeeCee's today - too tired, too busy and crabby as hell. Can anyone lend me some? wink

Ana Fri 23-Nov-12 16:10:59

No - bad for their teeth! shock

Nanadog Fri 23-Nov-12 15:58:06

Walking the dogs (all 8 of them) earlier I passed a herd of cows. About half a dozen of them were hanging their heads over the gate looking sad. I fed them the remains of a packet of mints I had in my pocket.
Can I claim some pee cee points for that please?

Ana Fri 23-Nov-12 15:50:32

Are you saying you only have one gas-guzzling car, and an unheated swimming pool, when? hmm

whenim64 Fri 23-Nov-12 15:49:20

I haven't got a gas-guzzling second car, nor a heated swimming pool.....surely worth 1/2 a point?.....someone....? grin
